What is your name? 

Dan Moore

When did you begin listening to The Candid Frame?

Looking back through your archives, it must have been right around episode 100.  I remember the Jay Dickman interview which was #102, so right about then.

How long have you been shooting and what inspired your interest in photography? 

I was a graphic design major and 2D art minor in college, so I took all of the photography classes.  My instructor was Jerry Dell, and I didn’t realize at the time that 15 years later I’d have his voice in my head telling me to capture “black blacks, white whites, and a lively range of grays,” but I do.  I didn’t do much with it for a while after graduation, but on a 2002 trip to Arches National Park I fell in love with the Parks and photographing them.
